Where Do You Come From
Where Do You Come From
Composer(s): Ruth Batchelor; Bob Roberts
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Where do you come from
Tell me who you are
Do you come from another world
Or from some distant star
Where do you come from
Are you what you seem
Are you real, are you standing there
Or is it just a dream
Tell me more about yourself
Do you feel the way I feel
Are you just a vision,
Or are you really real
Where do you come from
Angel won't you say
Tell me all that there is to know
And tell me that you'll stay

Alex Chilton
Alex Chilton
Composer(s): Paul Westerberg - Chris Mars - Tommy Stinson
First release by: The Replacements - 1987
If he was from Venus, would he feed us with a spoon?
If he was from Mars, wouldn't that be cool?
Standing right on campus, would he stamp us in a file?
Hangin' down in Memphis all the while
Children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
They sing "I'm in love
What's that song?
I'm in love with that song"
Cerebral rape and pillage in a village of his choice
Invisible man who can sing in a visible voice
Feeling like a hundred bucks, exchanging good lucks face to face
Checkin' his stash by the trash at St. Mark's place
Children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
They sing "I'm in love
What's that song?
I'm in love with that song"
I never travel far, without a little Big Star
Runnin' 'round the house, Mickey Mouse and the Tarot cards
Falling asleep with a flop pop video on
If he was from Venus, would he meet us on the moon?
If he died in Memphis, then that'd be cool, babe
Children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
They sing "I'm in love
What's that song?
I'm in love with that song"

Where Do We Go From Here?
Where Do We Go From Here?
Composer(s): Howard John; Percy Wenrich
Performer(s): Judy Garland
Paddy Mack drove a hack
Up and down Broadway
Pat had one expression and he'd use it every day
Any time he'd grab a fare, to take them for a ride
Paddy Jumped upon the seat, cracked his whip and cried
One fine day on Broadway
Pat was driving fast
When the street was blown to pieces by a subway blast
Down the hole poor Paddy went, a thinkin' of his past
Then he says, says he, I think these words will be my last
First of all, at the call
When the war began
Pat enlisted in the army as a fighting man
When the drills began, they'd walk a hundred miles a day
Tho the rest got tired
Paddy always used to say
Where do we go from here boys
Where do we go from here?
Anywhere from Harlem to a Jersey City pier
When Pat would spy a pretty girl, he'd whisper in her ear
"Oh joy, Oh boy
Where do we go from here?"
Where do we go from here boys
Where do go from here?
Paddy's neck was in the wreck
but still he had nor fear
He saw a dead man next to him and whispered in his ear
"Oh joy, Oh boy
Where do we go from here?"
Where do we go from here boys
Where do we go from here?
Slip a pill to Kaiser Bill
and make him shed a tear
And when we see the enemy we'll shoot in the rear
"Oh joy, Oh boy
Where do we go from here?"

Alevosía
Alevosía
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute; Milton Cortez
Más que amor, lo que siento por ti
es el mal de] animal
no la terquedad del jabalí
ni la furia del chacal...
Es el alma que se encela
con instinto criminal
es amar, hasta que duela
como un golpe de puñal...
ay, amor, ay, dolor...
Yo te quiero con alevosía...
Necesito confundir tu piel
con el frío del metal
0 tal vez con el destello cruel
de un fragmento de cristal...
Quiero que tus sentimientos
sean puro mineral
polvo de cometa al viento
del espacio sideral ...
ay, amor, ay, dolor ...
yo te quiero con alevosía
Nada envidio a la voracidad
de tu amante más letal
ella espera tu fatalidad
yo pretendo lo inmortal
el espíritu que habita
tu belleza más carnal
esa luz que resucita
el pecado original...
ay, amor, ay, dolor. .
yo te quiero con alevosía...

Where Do The Holes Go In Doughnuts
Where Do The Holes Go In Doughnuts
Composer(s): R. Carlson
Performer(s): Billy James
My father was a baker
And oh, how he could bake
His bread was heavy laden
Aa also was his cake
He surely knew his business
That's how he made his dough
But often he would say to me
Here's what I'd like to know...
Where do the holes go in doughnuts
When we eat the doughnuts up?
I've tried to find out the answer
Ever since Hector was a pup (Woof woof!)
Now, I know where mosquitos go in winter
And I know it hurts to sit down on a splinter
But tell me, where do the holes go in doughnuts
When we eat the doughnuts up?

Além Do Cansaço
Além Do Cansaço
Composer(s): Petrúcio Maia - Brandão
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner
Quando não houver mais música no ar
Nem houver sorrisos em volta
Quando nada na tarde morta
Além do cansaço da vida falar
Quando o cigarro irritar a garganta
E a bebida os lábios queimar
E a presença de alguém que ainda canta
Não consiga no peito cantar
Quando a rua, a casa e a porta
Não mais falem de ir ou chegar
Quando não mais houver poesia
Na triste canção de uma mesa de bar
É preciso entender que perdida
Pela vida uma estrada caminha
E que uma cidade sozinha
Não comporta a procura da vida
É preciso sair pelo mundo
Procurando somente encontrar
É preciso alcançar a aurora
Que a noite teimou em fazer não chegar
É preciso entender que a vida
Quer um jeito de resistir
E é preciso saber que agora
Aurora não pode esperar por vir

Where Do The Children Play?
Where Do The Children Play?
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Performer(s): Cat Stevens;
and various other artists
Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
yes, Get what you want to if you want, 'cause you can get anything
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads pumping petrol gas
And you make them long, and you make them tough
But they just go on and on, and it seems that you can't get off
Oh, I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well you've cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air
But, will you keep on building higher
'til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?

Aleluya N° 5
Aleluya N° 5
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Llévame contigo a la cumbre más alta
para tentarme con mil ciudades
de oro y carne que pondré a tus pies
Aparta de mí tus labios
son puñales sus palabras traidoras
acércame todos sus besos
que me matan dulcemente en el silencio
Condéname por los siglos de los siglos
a vivir clavado a tu cuerpo apasionado
así podrán nuestras almas
redimiese de la condena eterna
Flagélame si merezco penitencia
somos la herida
mis llagas serán los surcos
que encauzarán tus iras
Ponme, si es nobleza lo que obliga
la corona de espinas
la sangre que mane de mis sueños
purificará tus pensamientos
Enjúgame el sudor y las lágrimas
con tu mirada
que quede eternamente en tus pupilas
grabado el rostro de quien más te amó
Si no supone una cruz sobre tus hombros
ayúdame a soportar este ingrávido peso
que me aferra al centro de tu gravedad
Expóliame, si el deseo te lo exige
desnúdame ante ti
te ofreceré mi cuerpo en sacrificio
de amor y muerte
Crucifícame, si no te tiembla el pulso
crucifícame; pero hazlo con los clavos
de tus ojos, con los golpes
de tu corazón
Recógeme en tu regazo cuando caiga
te lo suplico
junto a tu vientre consumado mi bien amada
te encomendaré mi espíritu
Aleluya

Where Do I Go From Here?
Where Do I Go From Here?
Composer(s): Parker McGee
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
Autumn days lying on a bed of leaves
Watching clouds up through the trees
You said our love was more than time
But it's colder now
The trees are bare and the nights are long
Can't get warm since you've been gone
I can't stop singing sad songs
Where do I go from here
Tell me where do I go from here
You said you'd take me through the years
So where do I go from here
Lover's plans like fallen leaves on windy days
Flutter past and they fly away
I thought I knew you oh so well
And I need you now
I need to feel you in the night
I need your smile so warm and bright
I wish my mind could let you go
Where do I go from here
Tell me where do I go from here
You said you'd take me through the years
So where do I go from here
Where do I go from here
Tell me where do I go from here
You said you'd take me through the years
So where do I go from here
You said that you'd take me through the years
So where do I go from here

Aleluya N° 1
Aleluya N° 1
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Aleluya nº1
Una lágrima en la mano
un suspiro muy cercano
una historia que termina
una piel que no respira
una nube desgarrada
una sangre derramada
aleluya
Gritos mudos que suplican
una tierra que palpita
la sonrisa de un recuerdo
la mentira de un te quiero
unos cuerpos que se anudan
una niña que pregunta
aleluya
Mil silencios de un olvido
un amor que se ha perdido
tres guirnaldas en el pelo
el aliento de unos besos
el perdón de los pecados
unos pies que están clavados
aleluya
La razón de la locura
una luz de luna oscura
unos ojos en la noche
una voz que no se oye
una llama que se apaga
una vida que se acaba
aleluya
Sombras sobre luces en la clara oscuridad
de este mundo absurdo que no sabe adónde va
aleluya, aleluya, aleluya
Una madre que amamanta
tengo seca la garganta
el color de un tiempo abierto
un mañana siempre incierto
el sudor en una frente
el dolor de aquella gente
aleluya
Una llaga que se cierra
una herida que se entierra
unos labios temblorosos
unos brazos calurosos
dos palabras en la arena
una ola se las lleva
aleluya
Un reloj con treinta horas
el cartel de No Funciona
una piedra en el vacío
otra piedra en el sentido
una lluvia en el alma
un incendio en las entrañas
aleluya
Unos pasos sin destino
por cuarenta mil caminos
un acorde disonante
nueve infiernos sin el Dante
unas flores en mi tumba
siempre nunca, nunca, nunca
aleluya
Sombras sobre luces en la clara oscuridad...

Where do I begin
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start
With her first hello
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine
There'd never be another love, another time
She came into my life and made the living fine
She fills my heart
She fills my heart with very special things
With angels' songs , with wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go I'm never lonely
With her around, who could be lonely
I reach for her hand-it's always there
How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I'll need her till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there
How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I'll need her till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there

Aleluya Del Silencio
Composer(s): Maria Ostiz
Performer(s): Raphael; Maria Ostiz
Escuchar el aire
Cuando en la mañana azul
Todas las estrellas duermen
Al nacer la luz
Cuando el arco iris llora
Sólo el aire escuchareis
Llamas que no queman rezareis
Todo corre deprisa
Sin ver, nada ves ni de color
Nuestras manos sólo piden amor
Nuestras voces gritarán
Unidas siempre cantarán
Aleluya, aleluya
Aleluya, aleluya
Aleluya, aleluya
Aleluya, aleluya
Para los que sufren
Al otro lado del mar
Los niños que lloran
Sin saber porqué llorar
Para los que pasan hambre
Para los que tienen sed
Llamas que no queman
Salmos encendidos
Como lirios secos van
Sólo el campo verde crecerá
Todo corre deprisa
Sin ver, nada ves ni de color
Nuestras manos sólo piden amor
Nuestras voces gritarán
Unidas siempre cantarán

Where Do Broken Hearts Go
Where Do Broken Hearts Go
Composer(s): Frank Williams; Chuck Jackson
Performer(s): Whitney Houston;
and various other artists
I know it's been some time
But there's something on my mind
You see, I haven't been the same
Since that cold November day...
We said we needed space
But all we found was an empty place
And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately...
So here I am
And can you please tell me... oh
Chorus:
Where do broken hearts go
Can they find their way home
Back to the open arms
Of a love that's waiting there
And if somebody loves you
Won't they always love you
I look in your eyes
And I know that you still care, for me
I've been around enough to know
That dreams don't turn to gold
And that there is no easy way
No you just can't run away...
And what we have is so much more
Than we ever had before
And no matter how I try
You're always on my mind
chorus
And now that I am here with you
I'll never let you go
I look into your eyes
And now I know, now I know...
chorus

Where Did You Get That Hat?
Where Did You Get That Hat?
Composer(s): James Rolmaz
Performer(s): Stanley Holloway; Al Simmons
Now how I came to get this hat, 'tis very strange and funny
Grandfather died and left to me his property and money
And when the will it was read out, they told me straight and flat
If I would have his money, I must always wear his hat
Chorus
"Where did you get that hat? Where did you get that tile?
Isn't it a nobby one, and just the proper style?
I should like to have one Just the same as that!"
Where'er I go, they shout "Hello! Where did you get that hat?"
If I go to the op'ra house, in the op'ra season
There's someone sure to shout at me without the slightest reason
If I go to a concert hall to have a jolly spree
There's someone in the party who is sure to shout at me
Chorus
At twenty-one I thought I would to my sweetheart get married
The people in the neighbourhood had said too long we'd tarried
So off to church we went right quick, determined to get wed
I had not long been in there, when the parson to me said
Chorus
I once tried hard to be M.P. but failed to get elected
Upon a tub I stood, round which a thousand folks collected
And I had dodged the eggs and bricks (which was no easy task)
When one man cried, "A question I the candidate would ask!"
Chorus
When Colonel South, the millionaire, gave his last garden party
I was amongst the guests who had a welcome true and hearty
The Prince of Wales was also there, and my heart jumped with glee
When I was told the Prince would like to have a word with me
Chorus

Performer(s): Ben Molar
He vuelto a aquel banco del Parque Lezama
Lo mismo que entonces se oye en la noche
la sorda sirena de un barco lejano
Mis ojos nublados, te buscan en vano
Despues de diez años he vuelto aqui solo
sonando aquel tiempo, oyendo aquel barco
El tiempo y la lluvia, el viento y la muerte
ya todo llevaron, ya nada dejaron
En que soledades
de hondos dolores
en cuales regiones
de negros malvones
estas, Alejandra?
Por cuales caminos
con grave tristeza
oh, muerta princesa?
He vuelto a aquel banco del Parque Lezama
Lo mismo que entonces se oye en la noche
la sorda sirena de un barco lejano
Mis ojos nublados, te buscan en vano
Despues de diez años he vuelto aqui solo
sonando aquel tiempo, oyendo aquel barco
El tiempo y la lluvia, el viento y la muerte
ya todo llevaron, ya nada dejaron

Where Did You Get That Girl?
Composer(s): Bert Kalmar; Harry Puck
Lonesome Johnnie Warner, sitting in a corner of a swell cafe
eating his heart away because he had no girl
at another table, sat a girl named Mable
with a fellow who Johnnie knew
and his brain began to whirl
The girl had caught his eye and John began to cry
Johnnie found a corker, started in to walk her down the avenue
Down to the parson who would make them man and wife
Parson Lee received him, and when he relieved him of the marriage fee
Parson Lee said never on my life, have I seen such a miss
say Johnnie tell me this
Where did you get that girl?
Oh! you lucky devil
Where did you get that girl?
tell me on the level
Have you ever kissed her
if she has a sister lead me, lead me, lead me to her mister
Gee! I wish that I had a girl
I'd love 'er I'd love er
Oh goodness how I'd love er
If you can find another, I'll take her home to mother
Where! Where! Where did you get that girl?
Where did you get that girl?
Oh! you lucky devil
Where did you get that girl?
tell me on the level
Have you ever kissed her
if she has a sister lead me, lead me, lead me to her mister
Gee! I wish that I had a girl

I'd love er
Oh goodness how I'd love er
If she's here long I'm liable to give away my bible
Where! Where! Where did you get that girl?

Alegria, Alegria
Composer(s): Caetano Veloso
Performer(s): Caetano Veloso; Nana Caymmi; Flávio Venturini
Caminhando contra o vento, sem lenço, sem documento
No sol de quase dezembro, eu vou
O sol se reparte em crimes, espaçonaves, guerrilhas
Em Cardinales bonitas, eu vou
Em caras de presidentes, em grandes beijos de amor
Em dentes, pernas, bandeiras, bomba e Brigite Bardot
O sol nas bancas de revista me enche de alegria e preguiça
Quem lê tanta notícia
Eu vou por entre fotos e nomes os olhos cheios de cores
O peito cheio de amores vãos
Eu vou, por que não? Por que não?
Ela pensa em casamento, e eu nunca mais fui à escola
Sem lenço, sem documento, eu vou
Eu tomo uma coca-cola, ela pensa em casamento
E uma canção me consola, eu vou
Por entre fotos e nomes, sem livros e sem fuzil
Sem fone e sem telefone no coração do Brasil
Ela nem sabe, até pensei em cantar na televisão
O sol é tão bonito
Eu vou sem lenço, sem documento, nada no bolso ou nas mãos
Eu quero seguir vivendo, amor
Eu vou, por que não? Por que não?
Por que não? Por que não? Por que não?
